Tefal UltraGlide Easycord FV4256 Iron Questions & Answers
Lost steam pressure
see this causes and fix it.God bless you
Inspect the steam vents from the outside, and use a pipe
cleaner or other small utensil to remove any excess buildup that is
blocking the vents. Be careful not to let the buildup fall down into the
steam vents.
3
Clean the steam iron's directional spray tip. Minerals and
other debris can build up on the nozzle over time and will greatly
hinder the use of your steam iron.
4
Pour equal parts vinegar and water into the steam iron's
water supply tank. Put the steam iron above an empty pot, and turn the
iron on. Let it steam the solution until all the water/vinegar solution
is gone
2 year old iron lost power while ironing. Plugged
It has defective parts, either the wire is open or the heating element also a defective plug cord.
It can be check by a continuity tester, if you have and knows how to use it.
If not, call or ask who has knowledge in appliance or electrical repair for assistance.
Thanks for asking.
The steam is building up
I suspect that the discharge holes have become clogged by calcified deposites due to hard water. You need to de-calcify the iron. Mix one cup of white vinegar with one cup of water and pour this mixture in the iron and let it heat up. The acidic vinegar should dissolve the build up. repeat until clear. forthe final, use a little lemon in a cup of water to get rid of the vinegar smell. You can prevent this by using only distilled water in the iron, but this is not really practical, so a couple of clearing runs of the vinegar/water bath each month will put this off.
How do i clean spray starch from the iron
On the iron warm, use washing utensil vim powder or any, pour on a piece of cloth rub on the stains mark. It's will work well to clear off stains marks

thanks for rating
If using with a power strip or extension cord, how
Power = Current x Emf
Current = Power / Emf
Current - Amps
Emf - Volts
Power - Watts
Current = 1700 watts / 120 Volts = 14 Amps
If you live in Europe then -
Current = 1700 watts / 240 Volts = 7 Amps
Be sure your breaker and extension cord are rated for the amperage.
Red light is on, no
Use a multimeter to check if the heating base unitwhich contains the coil is showing a good continuity. You will need to check from the cut off thermostat - bimetal- as the red light is a neon and will light up with the mains power. All what is needed is to take a continuity test with the ohmeter in the lowest range. If the coils are good then the fault can be the cut off thermostat , contacts would have eroded , clean and set.
Hope you start fromthe first part.helpful I hope.Good day
Damaged mains cable
it is betterr to get a sealed power plug with the nylon insulation for the iron with a 15 amps rating wire and plug.
open the unit and disconnect the wire of the damaged plug, remove and replace with the new one taking care to connect each of the wires to the correct position. The lead , neutral and the ground must be double checked before you switch on.
